Also could imply they don't want to risk injury and/or the kid just wants to be here and doesn't need the last dollar.

Sure, but that certainly wouldn't be coming from the agent, and every new QB extension seems to set a new bar.

No doubt....and players need to learn they are in charge. Not the agent. Agent has a ton of clients and he/she will be fine if the player gets hurt or regresses. Then again, the NFLPA might not want the player to take less either.

Got my 2nd on Saturday. Wiped out my Sunday pretty much (achey and tired).

Good deal. So far no soreness from the vaccine or any weird effects. I go back in 4 weeks to get my second shot.

Don't have much planned for day after just in case. Though have known some who were just fine. Seems kind of random.

me, too. achy, tired, fever, chills. But better by next day. Guessing you are OK today?

Still a little tired, but that's probably from screwing up my sleep schedule yesterday. Slept more during the day than I did overnight, lol.

As far as people getting those bad side effects seems to be a crap-shoot. Doesn't seem to be any reason why some people have some issues and others don't.

My grandmother had a rough time with her second dose, but not from the after-effects. They managed to hit a nerve with the needle.

I just happened to get a Saturday, although it magically scheduled my second shot for my birthday.

Getting mine on 4/20. lol

Good deal. Do you know which one you're getting? I got the moderna. And I know what I'm getting on 4/20. A severe case of cottonmouth.

@Stakesarehigh @Wamu

looking like Clowney might be signing here. Second visit planned for Wednesday. Not sure why he'd come back and not sign.

Never been enamored or thought was a must sign, but trust this FO enough that if they think he's a fit at the right price he cannot hurt.

Thanks for the info. As long as he doesn't want some kinda big contract sounds good. Haven't followed his career so don't know much about him.

I'm just guessing, but I think it may be his demands that have kept him from signing anywhere yet. Maybe reality is setting in?

Clooney became a big draw before he ever even went to college because his high school stats were absurd. He's never really hit the level people thought in the NFL. Nice player with a few pro bowls that he may not have otherwise gotten minus the name.

For some reason he doesn't put up the numbers everyone wants to see but PFF, I believe, seems to like him.

As long as it is a reasonable deal it's all good. 12 million or something. I figure they may have to jostle some cap around but they are one of the cleanest cap teams out there so it's not a big deal.

Heard some of their big signings this offseason were very low for 2021 so more room than one might think (Hill and Johnson COMBINED only $7.5 mil). still might have $14 mil left, according to someone I trust.

No doubt they have been exceptional when it comes to how to maneuver the cap.

They need like 6 to 8 for the draft right
